EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures a significant moment in history as Rene Duguay Trouin (Duguay-Trouin) receives the cross of Saint-Louis from the hands of King Louis XIV. The engraving, featured in the "Dictionnaire populaire illustrious" in 1864 by Joseph Decembre and Edmond Allonier, showcases the grandeur and prestige of the royal court. Rene Duguay Trouin, also known as Rene Trouin du Gue dit, was a renowned French corsair who made his mark in naval warfare during the late 17th and early 18th centuries. His bravery and skill earned him this prestigious military decoration from King Louis XIV himself. In this black-and-white image, we witness an extraordinary moment frozen in time. The composition exudes power and authority as King Louis XIV bestows upon Trouin the symbol of honor - the cross of Saint-Louis. This honorary decoration signifies not only recognition for Trouin's exceptional service to France but also highlights his status as a respected courtier within French society. The artist behind this remarkable engraving remains unknown; however, their talent is evident through their attention to detail and ability to capture emotion on paper. Stefano Bianchetti has preserved this historical masterpiece within his private collection for all to admire. As we gaze upon this photograph print, we are transported back to a time when kings ruled with absolute power and valorous individuals like Rene Duguay Trouin were celebrated for their contributions to their nation
